The Northwest Seaport Alliance is a port development authority governed by the ports of Seattle and Tacoma, and its operating budget is funded by the two ports. Each port will hold public meetings in November to adopt its statutory budget and tax levy. The Port of Seattle Commission will hold budget meetings Oct. 13 and 27 and Nov. 10 and 24, and the Port of Tacoma Commission will meet Nov. 5 and 17.
